Xilin blinked, wondering if she should feel shy at this moment.

"It's been a long time since we've seen Theresa, it feels like it's been almost a year."

After he walked over, the girls offered him the seat of honor, and he sat in the middle and said with a smile.

"Pretty much... I'm almost exhausted over there after you left."

With a sigh, Theresa was experiencing a bittersweet mix of pain and pleasure.

She was happy because the business of Gensokyo Amusement Park was getting better and better, and St. Freya's funds were no longer a problem.

The pain is that she's just too busy. When Gensokyo was around, she could manage some of the work, but after Gensokyo moved away, she was all alone. She was so busy every day that she was dizzy and exhausted that she wanted to just give up and be a hands-off manager.

Coming to this exhibition was a rare opportunity for her to relax. (The remaining text appears to be unrelated and possibly machine-generated gibberish.)

"In that case, why not just have the Heavenly Mandate send some people over?"

Nangong Yu suggested that this was just a matter of a word for Theresa.

"do not want!"

Theresa pouted, a little stubborn, and said, "I'm not going to rely on Grandpa for this!"

“It’s like a rebellious teenager trying to prove their abilities to their parents,” Cecilia suddenly said with a smile.

"Cecilia!!!" Theresa broke down instantly, and in a fit of embarrassment and anger, she swung her little fist and hit Cecilia's arm twice.

Of course, I didn't use any force.

"Speaking of which, wasn't Xilin's live stream back then because she was going through a rebellious phase and wanted to prove herself? I never expected she would have so many fans now."

"Huh? Well, there's no need to dwell on the past!!!"

Seeing that her mother was eager to reveal her embarrassing past, Xilin quickly interrupted her, blushing.

Just then, the kitchen door opened, and Seele poked her little head out.

"Everyone, we've finished eating!"

We had been waiting for Nangong Yu to come back. As soon as he returned, Xi'er, Mei, and Kaguya went to the kitchen to prepare.

"Speaking of which, there's another guest upstairs."

Bronya suddenly stood up and said.

"upstairs?"

"Ah."

Bronya nodded: "Gresch's mother, Blanca, is here today too. She's upstairs in Gresch's room chatting with her daughter."

"Oh, so..."

Nangong Yu's voice suddenly stopped.

Wait, Blanca is in Gretchen's room now, so what about the paintings she's been working on these past few days...?

Thinking of Gretchen's increasingly 'artistic' works, Nangong Yu's heart seemed to stop for a moment.
